FLASH 55 - SWEET SURRENDER

The first time they talked, her heart skipped a beat.
Something about him, made her complete.
He belonged to another but still wanted her.
Conflicting emotions, her mind a blur.
She turned to another to dull the pain.
Her heart objected again and again.
She acknowledged her heart, lost her fear.
Sweet surrender, choices clear.


Flash Fiction - Each Friday, I compose a short story of 55 words - no more, no less. If you would like to join in the fun and games... post your story and report to the boss -G-MAN. If you're not interested in contributing a story, feel free to read the other entries. I'm sure any comments you have would be appreciated.

Happy reading and writing!

  6. Sometimes fear the journey doesn't seem that bad.
    Look at what we have achieved in such a short time and remember the journey. Sometimes we forget where we are and now where we are.......
